| Abstract |
The Arctic is warming twice as fast as the rest of the Earth, changing the landscape. In particular, rising temperatures accelerate permafrost thaw, with implications for the vast stores of carbon currently frozen in these soils. The fate of carbon released from thawing permafrost is not clear; it could be microbially oxidized in place and release greenhouse gases, or mobilized and exported through rivers. |
